Title : max_start Usage : my $maxstart = $location->max_start(); Function: Get maximum starting location of feature startpoint.
In this implementation this is exactly the same as min_start().
Returns : integer or undef if no maximum starting point.
Args : none

Title : max_end Usage : my $maxend = $location->max_end(); Function: Get maximum ending location of feature endpoint
In this implementation this is exactly the same as min_end().
Returns : integer or undef if no maximum ending point.
Args : none

Title : is_remote Usage : $is_remote_loc = $loc->is_remote() Function: Whether or not a location is a remote location.
A location is said to be remote if it is on a different
'object' than the object which 'has' this
location. Typically, features on a sequence will sometimes
have a remote location, which means that the location of
the feature is on a different sequence than the one that is
attached to the feature. In such a case, $loc->seq_id will
be different from $feat->seq_id (usually they will be the
same).
While this may sound weird, it reflects the location of the
kind of AL445212.9:83662..166657 which can be found in GenBank/EMBL
feature tables.
Example :
Returns : TRUE if the location is a remote location, and FALSE otherwise
Args : Value to set to

Title : each_Location Usage : @locations = $locObject->each_Location($order); Function: Conserved function call across Location:: modules - will return an array containing the component Location(s) in that object, regardless if the calling object is itself a single location or one containing sublocations. Returns : an array of Bio::LocationI implementing objects - for Simple locations, the return value is just itself. Args :

Title : coordinate_policy Usage : $policy = $location->coordinate_policy(); $location->coordinate_policy($mypolicy); # set may not be possible Function: Get the coordinate computing policy employed by this object.
See Bio::Location::CoordinatePolicyI for documentation about the policy object and its use.
The interface *does not* require implementing classes to
accept setting of a different policy. The implementation
provided here does, however, allow to do so.
Implementors of this interface are expected to initialize
every new instance with a
Bio::Location::CoordinatePolicyI object. The implementation provided here will return a default policy object if none has been set yet. To change this default policy object call this method as a class method with an appropriate argument. Note that in this case only subsequently created Location objects will be affected.
Returns : A Bio::Location::CoordinatePolicyI implementing object. Args : On set, a Bio::Location::CoordinatePolicyI implementing object.

Title : trunc Usage : $trunc_location = $location->trunc($start, $end, $relative_ori); Function: To truncate a location and keep annotations and features within the truncated segment intact.
This might do things differently where the truncation
splits the location in half.
CAVEAT : As yet, this is an untested and unannounced method. Use
with caution!
Returns : A Bio::Location::Atomic object. Args : The start and end position for the trunction, and the relative orientation.

User feedback is an integral part of the evolution of this and otherBioperl modules. Send your comments and suggestions preferably to oneof the Bioperl mailing lists. Your participation is much appreciated.

Please direct usage questions or support issues to the mailing list:bioperl-l@bioperl.orgrather than to the module maintainer directly. Many experienced and reponsive experts will be able look at the problem and quickly address it. Please include a thorough description of the problem with code and data examples if at all possible.
